    My Dad assembled a Bucyrus shovel in 1938 for the Loskop Dam, in South Africa, wall excavation. Everything was delivered by rail to site in 4 huge packing crates. The manuals arrived a month before the machine so that he could study the assembly and not waste time on site when the machine arrived.
